I was there at the Forum Copenhagen on September 29, 1981! He played 1 whole hour extra! The whole crowd was on their feet. Best concert of my Life! SANTANA Forever! ❤🎸💙🤗❤️☮️🙏
I was car dancing to this, one of my hands down all time faves, once at an intersection, waiting for the light to change. I was really into it and in the middle of my having such a great time all by myself, I looked over and a bus driver in the next lane was watching me and grinning, obviously really enjoying my "performance." We both laughed as we drove on.
61 here in the Missouri Ozarks and feel the same. I think Clint Eastwood said it best... "I Miss the Good Ole Days When Everybody Wasn't Such a Pussy."
This was one of the songs that fueled my fight against pancreatic cancer. As of today I am 6 years and 11 days post surgery with no evidence of recurrence.
This is why I'm glad to have a subscription to Sirius XM. There are no classic rock stations where I live, so satellite is where I can get to hear songs like this.
For the longest time I thought this was Steve Winwood lol 😅 Blew my mind when I found out Santana was the artist. Alex definitely sounds like Winwood, total compliment 😊
I used to hear this song all the time. Now it rarely plays on 1980s, soft rock or oldies stations. Deserves to be in heavy rotation like other Santana hits.
Everything perfect!! The melody is a masterpiece. The lyrics are poetry. And I love Alex Ligertwood's voice. One of the most beautiful rock voices of all time. ❤
Thanks for your take, it's spot on!! I am reliant on it to do just that!! I am always there for everyone around me and it makes me remember that when people suck and don't know they SUCK! Helps me sleep at night !
Prayers to you my friend....yes I haven't heard this song since early 1980s when I was a teenager.....always been a fan of Santana but he brings out what Santana could have been....
@@aocidicoa yes,yes,1976,never listen the original version,amazing too,looks like Russ wrote another great songs as i see it,very Nice to know it,thanks my friend,God bless 🙏😊❤
I was 8 years old when this song came out. We would go to the local pool up the street and this song was on their jukebox. 42 years later and I'm still jamming to this classic.
This artist is a treasure to our nation. His music has been and will continue to be the gifts we who appreciate him will always turn to for pure enjoyment.
You know, I was thinking about it just the other day, we had so many great songs that were never played on the radio, but we found them and actually had hard copy's of them to listen to repeatedly. Kids now play a song on youtube and it fades away unless they save it. We looked through old boxes, drawers, and cassette tape cases to go through, and still had them to listen to and reminisce. Funny thing about us knowing the words to more than one of a particular artists songs, it's because when we had 8-track tapes, before the new fangled cassette appeared, the 8-track had a selector with 4 selections and each of those 4 had 3-4 songs each, but you couldn't just go to the song you wanted to hear like on a cassette and even easier later on, on CD. So we had to pretty much listen to the songs to get to that most popular song, thus we got to hear other songs that we learned and liked from the band that nowadays you don't have that. They cherry pick one song and a lot of music goes undiscovered. There were some tricks with the 8-tracks, it did have fast forward on some players, and we learned that when Song X was on, then you could switch selection and land on the popular song........lol .....My rockin Old Guys and Gals will know exactly what I'm talking about.
Still listening to this in 2025,was living it up in 1977-1979,couldn’t wait for Friday night…. I am 64 years old and I’m still dancing to my 70’s music..
I was diagnosed with Diabetes back on Feb 3rd 2022, I was scared and unsure what to do. My A1C was 13 and by July 22 I lowered my A1C to 5.4. This song is one of my motivational theme songs cause I am winning against Diabetes, if I can do it you all can too.
A have biutiful memories of myl life and help me to go and discover what else it was for me living my country I was only 22 and winner was my push to go and find a better life in Mexico Lindo the best time o of my life estarde there soy de Honduras. Tela Miguel los 80 los mejores years 🇭🇳
some of Carlos Santana's most comfortable and Smoothest guitar ever. I could hear it a hundred times a day and not get tired of it. This song helped me out of one serious situation. Got me back to love and life
Storm Walker Rippey this song turned my whole life around Dude, it's my theme song. I was at a nadir of my life back then in 81, all those lyrics applied to me, heard this song and changed my attitude, forever grateful.
Facts. Great song, to understand not to take anything you have for granted and not just look at the positives, but be positive and you’re always going to win!
I remember this one from when I was a kid, but didn't know who performed it. Remembered it one day, and once I found out who was responsible for such badassery I listen to it regularly.
My boyfriend and I just figured out that the verse of this song sounds like the bridge in the "Cheers" theme: "You wanna go where people know...people are all the same...you wanna go...that I couldn't get up, you know and one day I was one of life's losers..." LOL
For me this song is not only my favorite when I was a teenager but also I consider as an inspiring song for those people who have been thru worst times in their life but are determined to be better and stronger persons.
This comes up in my music every now & then. God is using you AND you are willing to let God use you in ways you won't know until you "see face to face." Peace & love, my brother in Christ.
It's my inspirational song since 1982 . It help me overcome my grandfather's passing and I also remember when Mid South Wrestling did music video for Al Perez back in 1985 using this song .
I've always loved this song and most from the 70s/80s! So😳 embarrassing I pride myself on music knowledge and always thought it was Steve Winwood😳! I'd say we all have great taste in music 🎶!
Here I am in December of 2020, reliving my youth of the early 1980s, and only now have discovered that the singer of this song is NOT Steve Winwood.., but Alex Ligertwood. Great song of my teens. Carlos plays such a great guitar.
I had a friend who thought it was Steve Winwood too. I told him I had all of Winwoods albums and he still didn't believe me. I for one would like to hear Steve Winwood tear into this rather than the version of"Whiter Shade of Pale" on the new Santana album.🙏😷🎵❗👀
I remember when this came out in 1981. This was at the height of Santana and their popularity was great in this era. I was in High School at the time and we listened to this song often as it was a main stay on FM radio at the time. Great times that I miss very much....
I so wish I could go back to the 80's. I was 12 when this came out. I'd give anything to go back to my Catholic middle school and do that time all over again. So many friends and family gone from that era along with my youth. I miss it and the music so much and I always think long hours on how it's all sadly never coming back. I loved my late teens serving my country, and my 20's chasing women drunk the entire 90's BUT if I could go back to 80 or 81 and have my grandparents back and my dad I'd give anything. My old friends listening to Journey or REO Speedwagon or heavy metal. We need to invent a time machine for nostalgic bummed out people like me.

This song should be played on Olympics commercials.
Heck Yeah
Santana's great the lead singer in this song never got the credit he was due

For the longest time I thought this was Steve Winwood lol 😅 Blew my mind when I found out Santana was the artist. Alex definitely sounds like Winwood, total compliment 😊
I always and to this day thought this was Winwood. Especially since he was really dropping the hits around this time
HAHA...Yep...Sounds alot like Winwood , 80's !!!
I'm glad I'm not the only one that thought it was a Steve Winwood!
LOL, and I thought for almost all my life it was a Pete Townshend tune...Thxs TH-cam
Never thought it was winwood but now that you say it I get it completely. They both rock
Carlos always changed lead singers, kept it fresh.
Alex was the best though
I used to hear this song all the time. Now it rarely plays on 1980s, soft rock or oldies stations. Deserves to be in heavy rotation like other Santana hits.

Definitely Alex Ligertwood has a great voice very powerful!
Stumbled on this tune on Twitter.I’ve been playing all day.What a jam.
How can you not like this song...nice days for me...

I’ve listened to this over and over it never gets old!
Carlos Santana makes his guitar talk. Among the very best. Been listening since Woodstock ...
Brings back great high school days!
